Leo Burnett China has appointed Danny Mok as its new chief executive, following the departure of Donald Chan.

Mok will report directly to Jarek Ziebinski, chairman and chief executive of Leo Burnett Asia Pacific, and will be responsible for the agency’s offices in Shanghai, Beijing and Guangzhou, according to Campaign Asia.

Leo Burnett have not provided a reason for Chan’s departure, who has held the position of chief executive at the Publicis-owned agency for just over two years.

Mok most recently held the position of chief marketing officer for Hong Kong mobile brand CSL. Before that he was chief executive for Hong Kong and Shanghai at Grey.
